Who is Scottie Scheffler’s wife, Meredith?
Meredith Scudder was born in Texas, United States, on May 12, 1996.
She was raised by her mother, Michelle Scudder, and her father, Mark Scudder.
She grew up with two siblings — her brother Andrew and sister Stephanie.
In 2014, Scudder graduated from Highland Park High School, where she met long-term lover Scottie Scheffler.
Meredith took an instant liking to Scottie, explaining: “At the beginning of high school I always thought he had a super humble ambience about him, that he was just a really down-to-earth guy that doesn’t take himself too seriously.
“Even when he had amazing accomplishments, that wasn’t the most important thing about him.”
After high school she attended Texas A&M University as a communication and business major.
She secured her Bachelor’s degree in 2018.
Scheffler was born on June 21, 1996, in New Jersey, but his parents, Scott and Diane, moved the family to Dallas, Texas, when the golfing prodigy was seven.
The young sportsman had already discovered his talent by this time, explaining to Golf Digest: “In high school, I narrowed it down to just basketball and golf.
“My whole life, I knew how much I loved golf. It was the one sport I always wanted to be playing, regardless of the season.”
While Scudder studied at A&M University, Scheffler attended their rivals, the University of Texas, but that didn’t stop the pair from regularly visiting each other.
What is Meredith Scudder’s history with Scottie Scheffler?
Scudder and Scheffler met at High School but didn’t date until senior year.
They continued dating long-distance during their university years, before Scheffler popped the big question during a hike at the Arbor Hills Nature Preserve in Texas.
Meredith and Scottie tied the knot in a Winter Wonderland-themed wedding in 2020.
Prior to the big day, Scudder wrote on her Instagram: “YES! I can’t believe God gave me my best friend to spend the rest of my life with, can’t wait to be your wife, Scottie!!!!
“Blown away at the Lord’s faithfulness and goodness to us. [LET’S] DO THIS!!”
The couple officially tied the knot on December 4, 2020, at Arlington Hall in Dallas, after dating for six years.
Do Scottie Scheffler and Meredith Scudder have children?
Scheffler and Scudder welcomed their first child on May 8.
The World No1 posted a heartwarming image of their baby boy Bennett on Instagram.
He captioned the picture with this message: “Welcome to the world little one. Your mom and dad love you so much.”
Bennett’s birth came just one week before Scheffler competed at the 2024 PGA Championship in Valhalla.
What does Meredith do now?
Scudder is the co-founder, vice president, and event planner for With Purpose College Station — a company that supports the lives of those affected by childhood cancer.
Alongside that, the American is also an ambassador of the nutrition organisation Juice Plus.
She previously served a couple for internships – one in Zambia in 2016 and another at Live Beyond in 2017.
She worked as lead event planner at Eatology in 2017.
